HLX-1是目前最好的中等质量黑洞候选者,它经历了七次剧烈的爆发,每次爆发的X射线亮度峰值为L_{\mathrm{peak},\mathrm{X}}\sim 10^{42}\ \rm{erg\ s^{-1}}$。有趣的是,HLX-1爆发的性质随时间而演变。在这项工作中,我们的目标是约束的HLX-1爆发的黑洞吸积的框架内的中央引擎的物理参数。我们发现HLX-1爆发的物理性质与辐射压不稳定性驱动一致。这种情况下可以解释的HLX-1爆发的周期性时间尺度的演变作为持续时间的函数。
HLX-1, currently the best intermediate-mass black hole candidate, has undergone seven violent outbursts, each with a peak X-ray luminosity of $L_{\mathrm{peak},\mathrm{X}}\sim 10^{42}\ \rm{erg\ s^{-1}}$. Interestingly, the properties of the HLX-1 outbursts evolve with time. In this work, we aim to constrain the physical parameters of the central engine of the HLX-1 outbursts in the framework of the black hole accretion. We find that the physical properties of the HLX-1 outbursts are consistent with being driven by the radiation pressure instability. This scenario can explain the evolution of the recurrent timescales of the HLX-1 outbursts as a function of the durations.
